SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the
following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,
and all other exposed metal parts for A C leakage. Check leakage as
described below.
LEAKAGE
The A C leakag e from any exposed metal part to earth g round and
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1.A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT -540A. Follo w the manufacturers’ instructions to use these
instruments.
2.A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3.Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a
VOM or battery-operated A C voltmeter . The “limit” indication
is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage
scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are e xamples of
a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated
digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See

NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
break-down because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also
use the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the
repair parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on
the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical pickup block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission,
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
Laser component in this product is capable
of emitting radiation exceeding the limit for
Class 1.
This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER product. The
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT MARKING is located on the rear
exterior.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
Notes on chip component replacement
• Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
• Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be
damaged by heat.

repair.
Procedure:
1. Press 1/u button to turn the set ON until “STANDBY”
appears.
2. Press CD button and 1/u button simultaneously.
3. When you releaset he buttons, a message “LOCK” is displayed
on the fluorescent indicator tube, and the CD ship mode is set.
[MC Hot Reset]
• This mode resets the set with the preset data kept stored in the
memory. The hot reset mode functions same as if the power
cord is plugged in and out.
Procedure:
1.
Press three buttons x , ENTER , and DISPLAY simultaneously.
2. The fluorescent indicator tube becomes blank instantaneously,
and the set is reset.

instance, when cleaning the pickup.
Procedure:
1. Press ?/1 button to turn the set ON.
2. Select the function “CD”.
3. Press three buttons x , ENTER , and OPEN/CLOSE simul-
taneously.
4. The CD service mode is selected.
5. With the CD in stop status, turn the shuttle knob clockwise to
move the pickup to outside track, or turn the shuttle knob
counter-clockwise to inside track.
6. To exit from this mode, perform as follows:
1) Move the pickup to the most inside track.
2) Press three buttons in the same manner as step 2.
Note:• Always move the pickup to most inside track when exiting from
this mode. Otherwise, a disc will not be unloaded.
• Do not run the sled motor excessively, otherwise the gear can be
chipped.
[Change-over of AM Tuner Step between 9 kHz and
10 kHz]
• A step of AM channels can be changed over between 9 kHz and
10 kHz.
Procedure:
1. Press ?/1 button to turn the set ON.
2. Select the function “TUNER”, and press TUNER/BAND
button to select the BAND “MW”.
3. Press ?/1 button to turn the set OFF.
4. Press ENTER and ?/1 buttons simultaneously, and the display
of fluorescent indicator tube changes to “AM 9 k STEP” or“AM 10 k STEP”, and thus the channel step is changed over.
[GC Test Mode]
• This mode is used to check the software version, FL tube, LED,
keyboard, headphone and volume.
Procedure:
1. Press three buttons x , ENTER and DISC 2 simultaneously.
2. LEDs and fluorescent indicator tube are all turned on.
3. When ENTER and DISC2 are pressed at the same time, the
key number check mode starts up. In this mode, the key numbers
of each key series are displayed.
4. In the key check mode, the fluorescent indicator tube displays
“KEY 000”. Each time a button is pressed.
5. When ENTER and DISC2 are pressed at the same time, the
key count check mode starts up. In this mode, the message “KEY
CNT @@” is displayed on the FL display tube. When each
button is pressed, the key row number is incremented first. Then
the key value is then incremented. However, one the button is
pressed, the key value cannot be counted.
6. When ENTER and DISC2 are pressed at the same time, the
headphones check mode starts up. In this mode, the message
“H_P ON” is displayed when the headphones are inserted. When
the headphones are not inserted. the message “H_P OFF” is
displayed.
7. When ENTER and DISC2 are pressed at the same time, the
volume check mode starts up. In this mode, the message
“VOLUME FLAT” is displayed on the FL display tube. When
the volume control knob is rotated in the positive (+) direction,
the message “VOLUME UP” is displayed. When the volume
control knob is rotated in the negative (-) direction, the message
“VOLUME DOWN” is displayed.
8. In order to quit the mode, either press ENTER and DISC2 at
the same time or press the three buttons at the same time as in
step 1.
9. To exit from this mode, press three buttons in the same manner
as step 1, or disconnect the power cord.
13
HCD-DX30/RG40
[MC Test Mode]
• This mode is used to check operations of the respective sections
of Amplifier, TUNER, CD and Tape.
Procedure:
1.Press the ?/1 button to turn on the set.
2. Press the three buttons of x , ENTER and DISC 3
simultaneously.
3.A message “TEST MODE” appears on the FL display tube.
• The messages VACS1 to VACS5 are displayed when the VACS
is changed in this mode.
• The number of repeats of TAPE and CD is set to the infinite
number as the default setting.
4 When v (CURSOR UP) button is pressed, GEQ increases to
its maximum and a message “GEQ MAX” appears.
5.When V (CURSOR DOWN) button is pressed, GEQ decreases
to its minimum and a message “GEQ MIN” appears.
6.When b (CURSOR LEFT) or B (CURSOR RIGHT) button
is pressed, GEQ is set to flat and a message “GEQ FLAT”
appears.
7.In the test mode, the default-preset channel is called even when
the TUNER is selected and an attempt is made to call the preset
channel that has been stored in memory, by operating the Shuttle
knob. (It means that the memory is cleared.)
8.When a tape is inserted in the Deck B and the TAPE B function
is selected, and when the REC PAUSE/START button is
pressed twice, recording starts.
The VIDEO function is selected automatically as the input
source.
9.Select the desired loop by pressing the PLAY MODE button
in the TAPE B function. Insert a test tape AMS-110A or AMSRO to Deck A.
10. Press the SPECTRUM button to enter the AMS test mode.
11. After a tape is rewound first, the FF AMS is checked, and the
mechanism is shut off after detecting the AMS signal twice.
12. Then the REW AMS is checked and the mechanism is shut off
after detecting the AMS signal twice.
13. When the check is complete, a message of either OK or NG
appears.
14. When the two buttons of SPECTRUM and DISC1 are pressed
at the same time in any function modes, either the “VACS ON”
display to enable the VACS function or the “VACS OFF” display
to disable the VACS function can be selected.
15. When you want to exit this mode, press the ?/1 button twice.
The cold reset is enforced at the same time.
